Oracle Instant Client enables development and deployment of applications that connect to Oracle Database, either on-premise or in the Cloud. The Instant Client libraries provide the necessary network connectivity and advanced data features to make full use of Oracle Database. The libraries are used by the Oracle APIs of popular languages and environments including Python, Node.js, Go, PHP and Ruby, as well as providing access for Oracle Call Interface (OCI), Oracle C++ Call Interface (OCCI), JDBC OCI, ODBC and Pro*C applications. Tools included in Instant Client, such as SQL*Plus, SQL*Loader and Oracle Data Pump, provide quick and convenient data access.

DigiCert retired the Organizational Unit (OU) field for all public TLS/SSLcertificates to comply with industry standards as of August 2022. This meansthat public TLS/SSL certificates issued by DigiCert will no longer have an OUfield. Refer to MOS note 2911553.1for details.

To avoid disruption to applications connecting to Oracle Autonomous Database onShared Exadata Infrastructure (ADB-S) during the server side certificatechange, you must use hostname based matching of the server certificate.

The following versions of Oracle Instant Client automatically support hostnamebased matching:

Versions: 18.19 (or later), 19.2 (or later), 21 (base release or later)

Oracle Call Interface (OCI), Oracle C++ Call Interface (OCCI) or ODBCapplications must use one of the above client versions.Oracle Database drivers based on Oracle Instant Client or Oracle DatabaseClient (e.g ODPI-C, python-oracledb Thick mode, cx_Oracle, node-oracledb,godror, PHP OCI8, PHP PDO_OCI, ruby-oci8, ROracle, and rust-oracle) must usethe driver with a compatible client version from the list above.An additional step is required if you have changed the ADB-S connection string.

ADB-S connection strings contain a hostname "...(HOST=xyz)..." which depends onthe region. For example, in the Chicago region the hostname would be"adb.us-chicago-1.oraclecloud.com". If you have replaced the default hostnamewith an IP address or a custom hostname, then hostname based DN matching willfail. The solution is to add a new entry to your /etc/hosts file using theoriginal ADB-S domain suffix. Your connection string should then use this newname. For example an entry "localtunnel.adb.us-chicago-1.oraclecloud.com"could be created and used.

Windows authentication enables you to connect to a database using your system or network user name and password. In this case, the database does not require a different user name and password. Windows authentication facilitates connecting to the database and maintaining database access credentials. After you add the required libraries to the system path, the Oracle JDBC driver enables connectivity using Windows authentication. The following steps show how to add these libraries to the Java library path in MATLAB. For details about Java libraries, see Java Class Path.

This issue is due to conflict of 32bit and 64 bit files.

I have installed oracle 19c 64 bit database on windows 8.1 (64 bit).

The UI path is 32 bit installed on 64 bit windows. I went through forums and it was suggested that I should install oracle 32 bit instant client. When I tried to do that it was giving some error due to oracle_home directory over-ridding.

Though I downloaded oracle client 64 bit version and also 32 bit version but I have not installed.

With Oracle database 19c 64 bit installed on my machine, ODP.NET came by default (containing relevant dlls for both 32 bit and 64 bit). Hence it worked. I was able to fetch data from database.

In computing, Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) is a standard application programming interface (API) for accessing database management systems (DBMS). The designers of ODBC aimed to make it independent of database systems and operating systems.[citation needed] An application written using ODBC can be ported to other platforms, both on the client and server side, with few changes to the data access code.

ODBC accomplishes DBMS independence by using an ODBC driver as a translation layer between the application and the DBMS. The application uses ODBC functions through an ODBC driver manager with which it is linked, and the driver passes the query to the DBMS. An ODBC driver can be thought of as analogous to a printer driver or other driver, providing a standard set of functions for the application to use, and implementing DBMS-specific functionality. An application that can use ODBC is referred to as "ODBC-compliant". Any ODBC-compliant application can access any DBMS for which a driver is installed. Drivers exist for all major DBMSs, many other data sources like address book systems and Microsoft Excel, and even for text or comma-separated values (CSV) files.

The introduction of the mainframe-based relational database during the 1970s led to a proliferation of data access methods. Generally these systems operated together with a simple command processor that allowed users to type in English-like commands, and receive output. The best-known examples are SQL from IBM and QUEL from the Ingres project. These systems may or may not allow other applications to access the data directly, and those that did use a wide variety of methodologies. The introduction of SQL aimed to solve the problem of language standardization, although substantial differences in implementation remained.

During this time, Microsoft was in the midst of developing their Jet database system. Jet combined three primary subsystems; an ISAM-based database engine (also named Jet, confusingly), a C-based interface allowing applications to access that data, and a selection of driver dynamic-link libraries (DLL) that allowed the same C interface to redirect input and output to other ISAM-based databases, like Paradox and xBase. Jet allowed using one set of calls to access common microcomputer databases in a fashion similar to Blueprint, by then renamed DataLens. However, Jet did not use SQL; like DataLens, the interface was in C and consisted of data structures and function calls.

The SAG standardization efforts presented an opportunity for Microsoft to adapt their Jet system to the new CLI standard. This would not only make Windows a premier platform for CLI development, but also allow users to use SQL to access both Jet and other databases as well. What was missing was the SQL parser that could convert those calls from their text form into the C-interface used in Jet. To solve this, MS partnered with PageAhead Software to use their existing query processor, SIMBA. SIMBA was used as a parser above Jet's C library, turning Jet into an SQL database. And because Jet could forward those C-based calls to other databases, this also allowed SIMBA to query other systems. Microsoft included drivers for Excel to turn its spreadsheet documents into SQL-accessible database tables.[10]

Over time, database vendors took over the driver interfaces and provided direct links to their products. Skipping the intermediate conversions to and from Jet or similar wrappers often resulted in higher performance. However, by then Microsoft had changed focus to their OLE DB[17] concept (recently reinstated [18]), which provided direct access to a wider variety of data sources from address books to text files. Several new systems followed which further turned their attention from ODBC, including ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) and ADO.net, which interacted more or less with ODBC over their lifetimes.

As Microsoft turned its attention away from working directly on ODBC, the Unix field was increasingly embracing it. This was propelled by two changes within the market, the introduction of graphical user interfaces (GUIs) like GNOME that provided a need to access these sources in non-text form, and the emergence of open software database systems like PostgreSQL and MySQL, initially under Unix. The later adoption of ODBC by Apple for using the standard Unix-side iODBC package Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar)[19] (which OpenLink Software had been independently providing for Mac OS X 10.0 and even Mac OS 9 since 2001[20]) further cemented ODBC as the standard for cross-platform data access.

Sun Microsystems used the ODBC system as the basis for their own open standard, Java Database Connectivity (JDBC). In most ways, JDBC can be considered a version of ODBC for the programming language Java instead of C. JDBC-to-ODBC bridges allow Java-based programs to access data sources through ODBC drivers on platforms lacking a native JDBC driver, although these are now relatively rare. Inversely, ODBC-to-JDBC bridges allow C-based programs to access data sources through JDBC drivers on platforms or from databases lacking suitable ODBC drivers.

An ODBC-JDBC bridge consists of an ODBC driver which uses the services of a JDBC driver to connect to a database. This driver translates ODBC function-calls into JDBC method-calls. Programmers usually use such a bridge when they lack an ODBC driver for some database but have access to a JDBC driver. Examples: OpenLink ODBC-JDBC Bridge, SequeLink ODBC-JDBC Bridge.

A JDBC-ODBC bridge consists of a JDBC driver which employs an ODBC driver to connect to a target database. This driver translates JDBC method calls into ODBC function calls. Programmers usually use such a bridge when a given database lacks a JDBC driver, but is accessible through an ODBC driver. Sun Microsystems included one such bridge in the JVM, but viewed it as a stop-gap measure while few JDBC drivers existed (The built-in JDBC-ODBC bridge was dropped from the JVM in Java 8[31]). Sun never intended its bridge for production environments, and generally recommended against its use. As of 2008[update] independent data-access vendors deliver JDBC-ODBC bridges which support current standards for both mechanisms, and which far outperform the JVM built-in.[citation needed] Examples: OpenLink JDBC-ODBC Bridge, SequeLink JDBC-ODBC Bridge. 2351a5e196
